Ecological" ftlsE. Assessment Issue 

AGENCY: U.S. Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of Availability. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces the 

availability of two reports on ecological 

risk assessment. An EPA Risk 

Assessment Forum report entitled 

"Ecological Risk Assessment Issue 

Papers" (EPA/630/R-94/009) contains 

nine papers on topics relevant to 

ecological risk assessment as described 

in EPA's "Framework for Ecological 

Risk Assessment" (EPA/630/R-92/001). 

The issue papers were peer reviewed at 

a workshop in August 1994. Workshop 

comments are contained in the report 

"Peer Review Workshop Report on 

Ecological Risk Assessment Issue 

Papers" (EPA/630/R-94/008), along 

with identification of cross-cutting 

issues, future research needs, and 

suggestions for possible stnidures for a 

future EPA ecological risk assessment 

guideline. Both reports provide useful 

source materials of EPA's first Agencywide ecological risk assessment 

guideline. 

ADDRESSES: To obtain a single copy of 

either report, interested parties should 

contact the ORD Publications Office, 

CERI, U.S. Environmental Protection 

Agency, 26 West Martin Luther King 

Drive, Cincinnati, OH 45268, Tel: (513) 

569-7562, FACS: (513) 569-7566. 

Please provide your name and mailing

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Dr. William van der Schalie, U.S. 

Environmental Protection Agency

DC, 20460, Telephone (202) 26C-6743. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The nine 

issue papers in the report "Ecological 

Risk Assessment Issue Papers" (EPA/ 

630/R-94/009) are part of a long-term 

effort to develop an Agency-wide 

ecological risk assessment guideline for 

EPA. Preliminary work on the guideline 

began in 1989 and has resulted in the 

publication of an ecological risk 

assessment Framework Report and two 

volumes of ecological assessment case 

studies. The issue papers, which were 

authored by experts outside of EPA, are 

the next step in the guideline 

development process. Many of the issue 

paper topics correspond directly to 

sections of EPA's ecological risk 

assessment framework (conceptual 

model development, characterization of 

exposure, effects characterization, and 

risk integration methods), while other 

focus on cross-cutting issues (ecological 

significance, biological stressors, 

ecological recovery, uncertainty, and 

ascertaining public values in ecological 

risk assessment). 

The issue papers were peer reviewed 

at a workshop in August 1994. The 

report from this workshop, "Peer 

Review Workshop Report on Ecological 

Risk Assessment Issue Papers" (EPA/ 

630/R-94/008), includes 

recommendations for revising the draft 

issue papers, identification of crosscutting issues and future research needs, 

and suggestions for possible structures 

for a fiiture EPA ecological risk 

assessment guideline. The issue papers 

were revised prior to publication based 

on workshop discussions. 

The issue paper set, along with the 

Framework Report, case studies, and 

other materials, provide scientific and 

technical information that will help 

bridge the gap between the preliminary 

Framework Report and the first Agencywide ecological risk assessment 

guideline document now being written.
